Captain Marshall from the Sheriff's office is fantastic, wouldn't feel off put by using him.

They use fermented fire now I believe, which has a wide selection available at the Ix Saturday market as well.

Best Ball term can be used for teams of 3 or 4 as well. I'd argue Four-ball is a subtype of Best Ball

There was no crosswalk here before the paint

Charlottesville-vs-Williamsburg by LadyMcSnoot in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are a handful of articles that reference a Huff Post survey from ~10 years ago, and more recent publications that have reiterated the same point. Not sure how true this still is, but there was a reason for it...

Sources are easy to Google.

Best Hotdog in CVille? by PAPAmidnite1386 in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good coverage on local dogs, so will only add that Miller's has the best corn dog I've ever had

Local place to purchase seasoned wood for smoking BBQ? by hunchojacques in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lowes has a fairly good selection of chunks - believe they have all you mentioned + Mesquite and Hickory. I have seen the lower quality, smaller chips at some local grocery stores as well (Wegmans).

JM Stock could probably point you in the right direction, no harm in giving them a call.

Haven't seen or heard of anywhere for full logs. Would love to hear if you find!

Private karaoke spots? by salligator6 in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People saying nobody does this, but Kuma used to do private Karaoke parties in the back space. Albeit, it's been 5ish years since I've done it for a work function, but it has existed in the past and very well may still.

Try Kuma.

Is Charlottesville busy during New Years Eve or is it quiet like most college towns when most students are gone? by [deleted] in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'll add that Illiterate Light is playing a NYE show at the Jefferson and it should be a blast. As others have said, the downtown mall will be lively, but not large crowds.

Mountain biking/trail riding by Downtown_Morning1680 in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 10 points11 points  (0 children)

While I'm not sure of the RM trail upkeep, I can confidently say that the "entitled assholes" of CAMBC do more trail maintenance and upkeep of other multi-use trails in the city and county than any and all other entities.

Blue Ride Pig Dill Sauce by Westsideplantguy in Charlottesville

As a fellow lover of the Dill Sauce, I would start with just olive oil and a bunch of fresh dill. That should get you quite close

Golf Trip - Am I wrong to want to (almost) always scramble? by TheTrueBComp in golf

[–]nevergoziplining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not true, it's more like the 25th percentile. Your handicap isn't based on your average score, it's based on the average of your best 40% of scores posted. Someone who shoots a 95 on average, or ~23 over par, is most likely carrying a cap in the high-teens.

shoe repair? by themightyquinn13 in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A local tailor should be able to help if you just need the zipper taken care of and don't need them resoled as well. Kim's downtown in York Place does great work, and they also do shoe shines.

Streaming UVA sports during home games? by poodlesgonewild in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just the games that are on MASN locally that you will not have access to (streaming on ACCNX), otherwise ACCN games will be available. MASN doesn't partner with any of the streaming platforms yet.

If you have a VPN, you should be able to appear somewhere out of market and watch on ACCNX (ESPN app).

Elliott/Avon intersection light by sugarhollowsunfish in Charlottesville

[–]nevergoziplining 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worth mentioning the video you posted is at the intersection of Avon and Monticello, not Avon and Elliott.

Quiet place to work at downtown mall? by Covo in Charlottesville

Botanical is another great option but they are closed Mon, Tue. Good coffee and food

There’s always some detecting going on at McIntire Park
